Need some how to steps to seal my already used and stained garage floor. Floor is about 3 years old, I don't think my crete guy ever sealed it, I was in a hurry to get wrenching in it and really didn't care at the time.

The floor has some staining which doesn't bother me, I just want to get it somewhat clean and then coat it so it looks a little shiny and repels additional staining.

Do I rent a floor scrubber or should I light sand it so the sealer etches.

Also, what are the best products to use. I would like to support any suppliers that frequent this site if they're stuff is good.

Pics of my floor, 30 x 48 shop, pics are of the worst stains, everything else is much better. Thanks.

If you're going to expense of floor treatment, especially epoxy, I'd sure recommend using a degreaser and powerwasher as you'd be amazed how clean you can get the concrete.

What's the cost difference from just sealing to a low cost epoxy finish?

I was just at Kuhlman's in Toledo asking the same things. The have a couple sealer options that are pretty cost effective. One is Kuhlman's Ultimate Sealer and another option is a "densifier." The densifier sprays on in thin coats and leaves a glossy-ish finish. I recommend going over and talking with them (Yard 1 location) and they will show you the specs and suggest whats right.
